i don't understand the relevance of the first picture in this weeks study article?!?!.
wt week of december 15-21 "cherish your privilege of working with jehovah".
can someone post the pic?.
comments regarding This image at my cong were hilarious...
speaker: "how do You feel about This image? What do You feel in your heart?"
answers : "This Is a beautiful building"; "i feel like WOW...how magnificent is the organisation"; "This makes me feel safe"; "This makes me think about how fast is the organisation moving"
and more blah blah blah...
Idiots...
so most would now know of the vile act in sydney last week where a man held hostage over 17 people in the lindt cafe in the middle of sydney.. two people were murdered...a beautiful, educated lawyer,loving mother of three, and a brave, loving young man working as the cafe manager.. this senseless and cruel act has touched everyone deeply, especially in the communities of sydney.
the outpouring of grief and support for the victims and their families has been immense.. i was therefore outraged to have the following comment made by a witness in conversation at the kingdom hall:.
"well, we dont need to be sad, because at least now they (the two victims) will get a ressurection.
a relative of mine sent to me an extract of a french radio show This morning.
in That show a french member of parliament said something about religious authorities needing to call to their people for peace, and he added "in That case especially the muslim authorities as This Is not about the local jehovah witness around the corner".
This was a way of speach, to state That the first involved should be the muslim religious authorities and nobody else...
but guess what This devoted jw said??
"wow it means That MP recognized how peaceful we (JW tm) are".
i mean...really Guys? A MP says one phrase in 10 minutes That have JW in it and the only thing That matters is jw.org marketing? Not the appeals for peace That religious authorities has to place or a word of compassion for the victims?
let's review:it's a cult....and it's disgusting.
You expect such behaviour from a Wall Street wolf, not from a religion of love.still they do not get it...
i have been wanting to introduce myself but i don't know where to begin.
my husband and i are enjoying our third guilt-free weekend of our lives (both born-in, almost 30).
he has been out mentally for the last year and a half but patiently waited for me to come around.
hello and welcome!
congratulations to You and your husband. As a born-in and almost 30 myself i imagine That You have most of your friends and Family still in so it must be(or have been) difficult to deal with the"group" opinion.
like OneEyedJjoe i'm interested in knowing how your husband touched You...i also have my wife fully indoctrinated into jw.org things...while i'm awake for 4 years now...
ses you ;)
have you found that,.
the longer she stays 'in' the greater her sense of entitlement?.
that any convo immediately reverts to the wt 'party line'.
Have you found that,
•the longer she stays 'in' the greater her sense of entitlement?
•that any convo immediately reverts to the wt 'party line'
•any plan for any time together is screened against meeting schedules
•guess.
1- yes.just getting worse and worse, because as she said, "if it was not for the truth, life Will have no meaning so i would have ended mine long ago"...
2- Sometimes.luckily as she now is aware That i do not give a sh...t about jw.org religion and That i Just stay there for her, she Is less and less bothering me with jw org language or typical phrases...that's a relief...
3-yes.even for our anniversary also, if there was field service or a meeting to go, i have sometimes to fight to have a really important event like anniversary only for the 2 of us.but sometimes i win;)
i listen to one of these all time in our hall.
she brings it up constantly about how they would do this or that but he has to work that saturday.
i think she should get a job and then he could find a lower paying 9 to 5 job..
had our CO last year That told point blank in one of his speach That "many years ago men went working and wifes stayed at home.but now women go out to have a job, it's the work of the devil."
when you hear stupidities like That you are not surprised by many things That happen next...
This being said, i tend to agree with anneB. You do not need to hear This woman complain if That bothers you, Just walk away and let them live their life as they want to (or as they think they want to anyway).
this has got me really wound up and i feel the need to post.
our friend an ex jw has just returned from a famous christmas market in germany, now my husband mentioned this to his mum as they have connections there.
she got all excited about how amazing the german christmas markets are there and how she would of def gone to one this year if she had the time!
my jw gung ho wife love Christmas markets.we go every year to one. Even a few years ago we went to the x-mas market in Strasburg...
she likes it. And i enjoy it toi, even if it Is most commercial stuff for me...
but yeah, jw double standard...as soon as she got out, she is all about how "we have the truth" etc...
i have been looking and finally saw the logo on the kh sign............. .

states he is a jehovah's witness near the end of the article.. .. http://www.press-citizen.com/story/news/education/2014/12/02/green-helped-shape-ui-public-safety-police-force/19798329/?utm_source=jw+news+and+archive&utm_campaign=47e569bee3-rss_email_campaign&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_5caf9e1836-47e569bee3-29185349&ct=t(rss_email_campaign ).

Just read the article....
i bet This guy is not carrying a gun himself. Nowhere in the article it's said... Just That he equiped his teams. He can say He let his employees carry one and act according to their conscience.so as a JW he keep his hands clean and even Can be an Elder or something... So Much for not being a hypocrite if it's the case.
but we have to agree, if what's written in the article is True, it has to be saluted and acknowledged as a great achievement.
had he not let slip This phrase "i'm one of JW", i'm sure no one would have asked if he is carrying a gun or not, and the focus would have been on the job described and the results instead,.
yesterday local needs was this theme.
are you spiritually grown up.. summary: if you are between 18-35 and not ms or elder, you lazy idiot are like a child.
at this age, especially if you grew up in "da trooooth" you have no issue with jw.org doctrine right (how do you know...?
hoser, now That you mention it the co visit was somerhing like a month ago...good thinking.
what was really entairtaining is That every one knew who was This talk directed at: We are 3 between 18 and 35 (2 Guys including me and 1 girl) who are not gung-ho jw...almost Never answering at the meeting,nowhere to be seen in field circus and looking bored at the meetings.
but i do not feel concerned because they specifically targeted Young born in That have no issue with the doctrine....Haha.i have big issue with the doctrine because i do not believe in That sh...t so technically, This was not for me ;)
idiots. They assume That every one believe them, but those who do not believe and want to keep their family Never let it slip...so they do not know who thinks what, and fire blindly at everyone...

At This age, especially if You grew up in "da trooooth" you have no issue with jw.org doctrine right (how do You know...?).so you should do more.more field circus, more raising hands and answering to meetings, and less amusement investing at work or party That goes to 1 am....you bastard can't you see That males in congo must have a tittle?
yep...touching, don't you think ;)?
